Israel's security zone in southern Lebanon includes the medieval Beaufort Castle as well as centuries-old villages that were home to Christians, Shi'ite Muslims, and Sunni Muslims.

Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem said on Saturday that the US-brokered agreement was a humiliating concession that undermined Lebanese sovereignty.

Included in the targets were Iranian surveillance infrastructure, communications systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities, and mine-laying capabilities.

The Green Zone includes Baghdad's parliament building, various government institutions, and embassies, with many politicians also having residences in the area.

Iraq has been trying to rein in some Iranian-backed militias, with Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi seeking to show that he can rein in chaos in the country.

The immunities, extending to all BoP members, include "any arrest, detention or legal proceedings in the courts or other entities in Gaza."

The condemnation comes after Bahrain's Interior Ministry announced on X/Twitter that air raid sirens sounded across Bahrain for the second time in as many hours.

"There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable, and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started," said US President Donald Trump.

The Israel-Lebanon agreement establishes a performance-based framework requiring Lebanon to prove it can rein in Hezbollah under a “trust, but verify” system.
